This article explains how to add server to Backup Exec. If you add a server name to the list of servers, Veritas Backup Exec should be able to resolve the title to a TCP/IP address. If Veritas cannot resolve the name to a TCP/IP address, the server’s name shows up in the server list. Though Veritas Backup Exec is unable to connect to it,
Backup Exec can clear up the names of the NetWare server names and IP addresses in your network’s DNS database. If these IP addresses and names are not in the domain name service,. You need to manually add the names and IP addresses to the media server’s host file. You can find the file in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM 32\Drivers\ETC directory.
